Spring?






The ice is melting from the streets
a Sun is beaming in the sky
taking promises to heart 
there is hope in the face of passerbys 
Could it be the ice is melting
around our hearts and minds? 
Could it be that the chains are falling off
clinking and shuffling away 
saving and salvaging despairing souls
washing away the muck and grime
shaking the dust loose
between one chapter's closing 
on into the next? 
I stand upon this street corner
and glance both left and right...
there's a change in the air
that breathes solemnly in my lungs
and with each forced exhale
it brings me closer
to the sounds of life once again.
